Places to visit! Southern Wales Attractions

Explore Southern Wales this summer

Summer is well underway, but don't let it go to waste. There is still so much more you can do!

If you have never toured Southern Wales, take the opportunity to visit a selection of areas, attractions and learn something new about this heritage and fun filled area.

Let someone else do the driving, sit back and enjoy:

Roam Wales, our newest tour member, offer around Cardiff, the Valleys and Swansea/The Gower.  There is even a tour about famous Welsh people.

SeeWales, tried and tested, offer regular day tours, with set departure from outside the National Museum, Cardiff.  With tours like 'Mines, Mountains and a single Malt' you know you are going to get a true taste of South Wales.

City Sightseeing will take you around Cardiff on their open top bus, giving you the opportunity to learn about the history, culture and what made Cardiff the capital city of Wales.

And if we have wetted your appetite for a tour - try Penderyn Distillery's whisky tour or visit Rhondda Heritage Park and Big Pit for their fun mining tours.

And a tour of South Wales would not be complete without a Castle.  Wales is home to over 600 castles and ruins.  Cardiff Castle offers a fantastic tour of its amazing interiors.  But if you prefer to make your own way around, in our area alone you could visit: Castle Coch, Caerphilly, Chepstow, Raglan, Caldicot,  Abergavenny, Craig-y-Nos, Cyfarthfa, and Fonmon castles.  For a full list of our castle attractions - see our theme 'Castles'.
